The Trident

The Raid on the Office pt. 1

It was the day of the assault on the Trident headquarters. At 10 in the morning CCC members undercover drove around and searched the area for any guards or watchers atop buildings. They were checking where the Three Spears were that morning in the city, and ensured they did not appear alert of what was going to happen. At 1 in the afternoon, a undercover watcher saw Leader enter the building. Chief Commander Dante was alerted as soon as Leader was seen, as Dante was also given reports on what his undercover agents had seen while driving around. Thus, he chose the specific sniper spots that would be best for picking off enemies coming from any direction. ECSU Lieutenant William was sent in as the captain of the sniper forces, and was put in a central and very hard to spot location. Hailey, Cole, and Kyle on the other hand were prepared to attack from the back of the office once the main assault began. Still, however, Luca and Raphael never appeared at the building. Nonetheless, at 2 o'clock, the assault would begin.

On the other hand, Leader had set up undercover men as well, and also paid civilians to report any odd cars or odd people they saw around the city. Joseph and Paul also noticed an increased number of people in the areas of their head offices and around their usual hangouts. Paul was especially nervous, as he knew of what this increase of people meant. Leader had told his captains and top agents to get out of the place, and used soldiers and captains prepared for the fight to stay, and set them up with bullet proof vests, kneepads and armguards. They were given the best of the weapons the Trident could get it's hands on in only a day; which were pretty effective weapons. They also awaited the time that the man on the phone told them the assault would happen, and at 1:45, Leader's setting up was done, and he left his office through a secret chute in the corner of his desk, wich a friend of Leaders had set up during the construction of the building for things similar to this. The chute entered the lower secret basement of the office, where Leader and another of his bodyguards, Franco Silliate, ran down the chute to a small, distant parkway where they had left a stolen car. This car they would use to get to the house that Vanessa was building, where they would hide. 

"This is one hell of a mission these assholes are pulling." Franco said as he quickly drove through the secluded streets, hiding Leader at the back. He had a pistol in his pants, an uzi in the glove compartment, and a shotgun just below Leader's seat at the back. They traveled down to the house, which was about a 13 minute drive. When they got there, they saw the construction workers and the on-site supervisor. Leader went up to speak the man, whose name was Akbar Shahidi. 

"Hello. Are you the owner of this house?" The man said in a slightly frustrated voice, something that Leader an Franco picked up on quick. It was a good thing Franco wasn't like Luca or Marcus, or else he'd already have been killed. 

"Yeah, I'm the owner. We're only gonna be here for a little while, and we'll be in the basement, so just keep your guys out of the t.v room, alright?" Leader said, being very calm. 

"Yeah, that should be fine. They aren't working in there anyways, just don't cause too much of a ruckus, please." Akbar said, still appearing a bit stressed.

The two began walking through the wood and cement piles, around the high-tech equipment and eventually reached the stairs, which were supposed to be like an escalator, but were not ready yet. 

"That one's a bit off." Franco said, appearing a bit annoyed. Leader didn't really care, as long as he was doing his job. 

"Yeah, whatever. I don't pay them to be entertainers. Anyways, here, look at how neat this thing is." Leader said as they entered a room with large white, fancy doors. Upon entering, Franco was greeted by large, white couches in a straight line. He sat down and Leader pulled out an odd looking remote. The couch was facing a large white wall with wainscoting, and a small cabinet with an odd device on top.
